I know there are many who like to read books on myLot. There are some lovely spots for book lovers which are book loving towns. Here are a few: Have you ever visited a book town? I remember Oxford was the place with the most books that I lived. That was in the days when I read a lot.
From Australia to Malaysia, these villages are prized for their abundance of bookstores

I'd love to see Oxford again. I was so young that I don't remember it.

Hay-on-Wye is only about 100 miles from me. I never knew it was such a bibliophile's paradise. I'll have to persuade Mrs. WorDazza that it's a place we need to visit.

That is interesting that some towns are known as Book towns. I seem to have got back my need to read over the past year.

We went to a town in Ireland noted for it's book shops, but I can not remember the name of it. I do enjoy bookstores..I hope they never completely go away.

@TiarasOceanView I would say Israel is a different book loving place. Here is the Old Testament place.
